I doubt his future boss would be willing to put up with him not talking to his female coworkers. That just isn't going to fly in the real world. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/religious-beliefs-vs-sexism#post-1342801 Mon, 13 Jan 2014 15:24:31 +0000 jedeve 1342801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It seems he should've gone to an all male college if he felt that strongly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/religious-beliefs-vs-sexism#post-1332169 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 16:55:32 +0000 blackbird 1332169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Nobody's forcing him to go to that college, anyways, or take that class. </p> <p>Does he know women will likely exist in the workplace? </p> <p>Plus, the student said ok. So it didn't bother him too much at the end of the day, it seems </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/religious-beliefs-vs-sexism#post-1332032 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 16:33:59 +0000 sunny 1332032@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Snowdrop: yes that makes sense! Nobody can force him to work with someone he doesn't want to interact with, but then he might fail the course/assignment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/religious-beliefs-vs-sexism#post-1332015 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 16:30:08 +0000 Snowdrop 1332015@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I believe he has the right to choose but no one should make any special allowances for him. Ifthat affects his marks so be it. TBH I have no time for people like that! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/religious-beliefs-vs-sexism#post-1332009 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 16:27:28 +0000 pui 1332009@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow this happened at York U? o_O</p> <p>The way I see it, he's allowed to not work with his female peers all he wants, but then his marks will reflect that. </p> <p>The best part is it was an online course? Did he even have to meet these women in person?</p> <p>I wonder what religion this is. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/religious-beliefs-vs-sexism#post-1331996 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 16:25:12 +0000 sunny 1331996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I just saw this in my FB feed. A male student taking a university course asked not to work with female students due to religious beliefs and the prof denied his request but the university forced the prof to comply. </p> <p>Gosh what a sticky situation. While I believe in religious freedom and respecting beliefs, I think I would side with the prof in this case. </p> <p><a href="http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/york-university-student-s-request-not-to-work-with-women-stirs-controversy-1.2490514" rel="nofollow">http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/york-university-student-s-request-not-to-work-with-women-stirs-controversy-1.2490514</a> </p>
